Description

A kind of microdrive with integrated cable and solder contacts support
Technical field
The present invention relates to the information recording disk drive unit, refer to a kind of magnetic head fold piece combination (HEAD GIMBAL ASSEMBLY, HGA) microdrive in of disk drive especially.Specifically, the present invention is a kind of microdrive that designs at reducing cable vibration.
Background technology
The information-storing device that everybody is familiar with refers generally to disk drive, and it utilizes the magnetic medium canned data, one movably magnetic head place and be used on the described magnetic medium optionally reading or write data from disk.
For this kind magnetic disk drive, the consumer always constantly pursues bigger memory space, the faster read-write operation more accurately that reaches.Like this, the manufacturer of magnetic disk drive improves constantly the memory space of disc driver, for example increases the dense degree of information stores by reducing track width and track pitch.Yet the magnetic disk drive increase of track density each time all requires W head correspondingly to improve the position control performance, makes it can carry out rapid and precise read-write operation when using more highdensity disk.Along with the increase of track density, read/write head is positioned also to become more and more difficult on the customizing messages track on the storage medium quickly and accurately with known technology.Therefore, the disc driver manufacturer constantly seeks to improve the method for W head position control.
A kind of effective means of being improved being used for of being taked compact disk W head position control performance by the disk drive manufacturer is to introduce second driver at present, be called microdrive, it is worked with master driver and makes the position control of W head become fast and accurately.The disc driver that contains microdrive is generally known as the double drive system.
For the operating rate that increases the read/write head on the high density storage medium particular track and improve its fine position function, in the past the multiple double drive of exploitation system.These double drive systems generally include a keynote coil motor (VOICE-COIL MOTOR, VCM) driver and one microdrive, for example a piezoelectric element microdrive (PZT MICRO-ACTUATOR).Described voice coil motor driver is controlled by servo-control system, and the position of the read/write head on the storage medium particular channel is adjusted in its turn in order to the actuating arm that supports read/write head.Piezo-electric micro driver and voice coil motor drive one and are used from the locating speed of the read/write head of raising on particular channel and the accuracy of fine setting.Like this, voice coil motor driver is carried out big adjustment to the position of read/write head, and piezo-electric micro driver is then made fine setting with respect to the position of storage medium to read/write head.Voice coil motor driver and the associated working of piezoelectric element microdrive just can read and write data from the high density storage medium accurately and efficiently.
Existing a kind of microdrive of realizing the piezoelectric element of the fine setting of W head.Thereby the auxiliary circuit that this type of piezo-electric micro driver comprises can excite the piezoelectric element on the microdrive that it is optionally expanded or shrink.Because the such structure of piezo-electric micro driver, thereby the expansion of piezoelectric element or contraction can cause that all moving of microdrive causes moving of read/write head.Compare this position that to adjust read/write head of moving with the disc drive unit of independent employing voice coil motor driver faster and betterly.Similarly piezo-electric micro driver was JP 2002-133803 at number of patent application once, patented claim and number of patent application that name is called " microdrive and magnetic head fold piece combination " are JP 2002-074871, name be called " be equipped with the fine setting driver magnetic head fold piece combination, be provided with the disc drive unit of described magnetic head fold piece combination and the manufacture method of magnetic head fold piece combination " patented claim in disclosed.
Fig. 1 has showed a kind of existing disc drive unit, and has showed the disk 101 that is loaded on the Spindle Motor 102, and described Spindle Motor is in order to the described disk 101 of turn.Voice coil motor actuating arm 104 supports magnetic head fold piece combination 100, and described magnetic head fold piece combination 100 comprises that 105, one of microdrives are provided with the magnetic head 103 of read/write head.Thereby voice coil motor is used for the motion of controlling and driving arm 104 makes magnetic head 103 move on to another track from a track on disk 101 surfaces, thereby realizes that read/write head reads and write the function of data from disk 101.In the operation, be equipped with that air between the disk 101 of the magnetic head 103 of read/write head and rotation is interactive can to produce a lifting force.Described lifting force is elastic force equal and opposite in direction, the direction opposite reaction that the cantilever part with magnetic head fold piece combination 100 applies, thereby makes magnetic head can keep a predetermined flying height on spinning disk 101 surfaces in the overall diameter stroke (FULL RADIAL STROKE) of actuating arm 104.
Fig. 2 is the magnetic head fold piece combination 100 of the existing disk drive of introducing double drive device shown in Figure 1.Yet, because voice coil motor (VCM) and the intrinsic tolerance (TOLERANCE) of magnetic head cantilever spare combination influence the ability that read/write head accurately reads and writes data thereby magnetic head 103 can't obtain rapid and precise position control from disk.Therefore a kind of aforesaid piezo-electric micro driver 105 is used to improve the position control of magnetic head and read/write head.Specifically, compare with voice coil motor, the amplitude that piezo-electric micro driver 105 can be less is adjusted the displacement of magnetic head 103, thus the resonance tolerance that compensation voice coil motor and magnetic head cantilever combination are produced.For example, utilize microdrive 105, can use littler track part record spacing (TRACK PITCH), and make the TPI value (' TRACKS PER INCH ' VALUE) of disc drive unit increase by 50%, effectively the reduction magnetic head is sought rail and positioning time (SEEKING AND SETTLINGTIME) simultaneously.Like this, piezo-electric micro driver 105 can make the surface recording density of the disk in the disk drive obviously increase.
As shown in Figure 2, described magnetic head fold piece combination 100 comprises a cantilever part 106 that contains flexible element 108.Described flexible element 108 has comprised a cantilevered tab 110 that is used to support piezo-electric micro driver 105 and magnetic head 103.In the relative both sides of cantilevered tab 110, flexible element 108 also comprises two outwards outstanding cables 112,114.Each cable 112,114 has an end portion that links to each other with float plate 116 and another end portion that links to each other with composite cable 118, and described composite cable 118 electrically connects with solder contacts 120.
With reference to Fig. 3, existing piezo-electric micro driver 105 comprises a metal frame 130, and its two side arms 136,138 by top sway brace 132, end sway brace 134 and connection top sway brace 132 and end sway brace 134 constitute.All connect a piezoelectric element 140,142 on described each side arm 136,138.Described magnetic head 103 is supported on the top sway brace 132.
With reference to Fig. 4, piezo-electric micro driver 105 passes through the end sway brace 134 of metal frame 130 with cantilevered tab 110 physical connections.End sway brace 134 can be connected on the cantilevered tab 110 by for example epoxy glue or laser bonding.Three are electrically connected and receive 150 (gold goal welding or tin ball bonding meet GBB or SBB) link to each other piezo-electric micro driver 105 with the cantilever cable 118 that is positioned at each piezoelectric element 140,142 1 side.Other has four Metal Ball 152 (gold goal or tin ball) that magnetic head 103 is connected with cable 118 and realizes the electric connection of read/write converter.When applying voltage by cantilever cable 118, piezoelectric element 140,142 expands or shrinks and make two side arms 136,138 in the same side bending.This bending can cause metal frame 130 detrusions, for example, causes moving of top sway brace 132 thereby script becomes the metal frame 130 of rectangle roughly to become parallelogram.This will make connection magnetic head 103 thereon move, and then magnetic head 103 is moved and the position of fine setting read/write head on disc tracks.In this way, can realize that the displacement control of magnetic head 103 is to reach accurate fine position.
Fig. 5 has showed when when piezoelectric element 140,142 applies voltage, the course of work of piezo-electric micro driver 105.For example, when positive sinusoidal voltage puts on the microdrive piezoelectric element 140 with positive polarization direction, in first semiperiod, piezoelectric element 140 will shrink and cause side arm 136 to produce ripples deformation shape.Because magnetic head 103 is placed on the top sway brace 132, above-mentioned distortion can cause magnetic head to be offset left.In like manner, when negative sinusoidal voltage puts on the microdrive piezoelectric element 142 with positive polarization direction, second half period, piezoelectric element 142 will shrink and cause side arm 138 to produce ripples deformation shape, thereby cause magnetic head to be offset to the right.Certainly, this operation depends on the polarised direction of electric control circulation and piezoelectric element, but principle of work is well-known.
With reference to Fig. 6, two outwards outstanding cables 112,114 are used for the float plate 116 that electrically connects composite cable 118 and electrically connect with magnetic head 103.In order to reduce cable resistance that cable hardness brings and the function of keeping microdrive in operation, be bent moulding and extend at the relative both sides of cantilevered tab 110 cable 112,114.Seek when advancing sex work in rail and the position fixing process when microdrive carries out magnetic head at disk drive, this kind design causes cable 112,114 vibration and displacements, and this will cause magnetic head to be overstepped the limit.For a high-revolving DVD multidisc (HIGH RPM MULTI-PLATE) disk drive,, the cable 112,114 of excurvation also will cause wind drift because of gas shock cable or cantilever part.These two problems make magnetic head PES (position error signal) and NRRO (NON-REPEATABLE RUNOUT) performance become even worse, and these will limit the memory capacity and the performance of disk drive.
For example, Fig. 6 has demonstrated the action of microdrive 105 cable 112,114 when work.As shown in the figure, when voltage input microdrive 105, the motion of side arm 136,138 may make cable 112 towards the back side oscillation of cantilever part 106, and another cable 114 is towards the top side swing of magnetic head 103.This type of action will cause cantilever part resonance action, and this also is to cause one of derailed reason of magnetic head.
The displacement result of cable action when Fig. 7 has demonstrated the work of prior art microdrive.As mentioned above, the design of prior art comprises 112,114 of outwards outstanding cable.The displacement of described cable is measured at different frequency.As shown in the figure, displacement trend comprises three crests 160 (for example in 4 KHz, when 6.3 KHz and 8.5 KHz).
Fig. 8 has showed the measurement of correlation data of prior art magnetic head NRRO performance.As shown in the figure, crest 170 has been demonstrated the probability number percent that magnetic head is overstepped the limit under different frequency.Because the action of cable, it is relatively large to show derailed probability among the figure.
Therefore, we need a kind of improved system to overcome above mentioned weak point.
